Ricky Starks Told Hook To Wear His Hood On TV, Taz Didn't Want Him To

Ricky Starks was recently interviewed by ComicBook.com, where he spoke about coming up with his Roshambo counter to Jay Lethal's Lethal Injection.

ā€œAbsolutely. Iā€™m not even kidding. I was cutting onions in my kitchen when I had this epiphany and I was like, ā€œI could easily do that. And no one would expect it. He wouldnā€™t expect it either.ā€ And so I think a lot of people look at me and donā€™t expect me to be as strong as I am or as quick as I am, but yeah, man, that was a great moment. Especially to get the victory too. And I beat somebody like Jay Lethal, so it was cool. It was really cool. I didnā€™t realize it went viral. I guess it did, ā€™cause my mom texted me about it. She was like, ā€˜This is cool. What is this?'ā€

Starks spoke about what Hook is like backstage:

ā€œThe same guy, thereā€™s no difference I remember when he first started with us back in Jacksonville. A lot of people didnā€™t get him. A lot of people did not understand him or like couldnā€™t figure out what [he] was about. And Iā€™ll never forget being like, ā€œHey if you wanna wear a hood on TV, you should do it. Just try it, just do it.ā€ And his dad [Taz] was like, ā€œNo, heā€™s gotta show his face.ā€ [I said] ā€œNo just let him do it. Letā€™s see what happens.ā€ So itā€™s cool to see that it take off the way it has. And obviously we are very proud to see how far heā€™s come. Especially from when he first started to where it is now. The Team Taz group has been through a lot, quite a bit. And where weā€™re at right now is not where we want to be, but itā€™s way better than where we were. So Iā€™m glad and Iā€™m proud to see where heā€™s at. And heā€™s awesome.ā€

Powerhouse Hobbs spoke about being left out of the "four pillars of AEW" discussions.

ā€œWe like to, Ricky and I, we rewrite things. So I personally feel, when he and I came into AEW it was during the pandemic era. We got signed about a month apart from each other. I feel that thereā€™s doubters out there and I feel every time he steps in the ring and I step in the ring, we change things up, we open everyoneā€™s eyes. Things will change.ā€

Finally, Hobbs spoke about the status of Team Taz.

ā€œI think everyone thinks thereā€™s some dysfunction in our group. We all have our own path, but when things get cracking, we all merge back together.ā€
